Pros

I must have got lucky as I was paired with a young, ambitious manager, who was also very technically competent and passionate about system and embedded software. I started here out of college and was put on a team using the most expensive development tools and with dedicated engineers to the development process and testing. In less than year my skills increased greatly as I was put on development projects creating whole components from the bottom up. Your mileage may vary.

Cons

Compensation is low, but I guess it is to expected at these kind of companies.

Pros

I worked at Raytheon for over 4 years and had a great experience. The company provided many learning and growth opportunities. I was promoted twice during my tenure with the company, and my responsibility increased significantly. I felt like my management supported me and provided me with the career mentorship that I was seeking. I felt empowered and respected during my time there.

Cons

It can be difficult to work at such a large defense contractor company because of all the process and red tape. Things can move slowly, you have to be patient and pick your battles. That being said, if you learn how to work within the system, you can make a significant impact here!
